AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout West Sussex we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car?

Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters. In the case you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank remove it at once. And obviously don't start the engine - not even to move it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you will most likely have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Whenever you end up in this predicament don’t fret or panic! Call us, the UK’s Number 1 fuel contamination company. Our experts have the specialised skills and experience to have you back on your way rapidly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Borden

I'm certainly not very enthusiastic about doing the job on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I'd only just departed home after eating a lovely roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was off to sort out a gentleman who had put the wrong fuel in his khaki green MINI Cooper Countryman. He was only in Borden thus I was on scene before long. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and got out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused any kind of harm by driving it?" I determined that truth be told there probably should not be any damage and also I'd drain the fuel as quickly as possible. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and then one more satisfied client had the ability to continue his journey without the need for hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what makes operating on Sundays in West Sussex a tiny bit less painful to me!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

  1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
    • A lot of smoke (more than usual)
    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
  2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
  3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
